This twin V-Twin, twin turbo custom motorcycle debuted at Biketoberfest last fall and took Best in Class at the Rat's Hole Custom Bike Show. It was built by A1 Cycles of Wellington, Florida and is called "All In." The bike runs a 360 rear tire and a 310 front, not exactly a sportbike, but it's interesting nevertheless.

Pretty good question in my mind since they seem to make a lot of sense and Buell is using them very effectively on their bikes. If you use only one disc you … [Read more...]
Matt Hotch Vinnie – Vincent Powered Custom
The last time I checked up on Matt Hotch, two time Biker Build Off champion, he had just built the V-Lux, a custom styled in the wide tire and chrome tradition that's been popular with builders for some time.
